Subtitle under title was created by IOANNIS PAPAKOSTAS

Hi, i am building a news site and i use k2 for articles.

I would like to give the option to the authors to write a subtitle under the main title of the article. I searched around but i didn't find any solution.
I am a beginner with php so i need some help here.

One idea is to edit the item.php file so when writting the title the author could enter a special character like a semicolon and after enter the text for the subtitle. This way it will not be necessary to make an extra field in the backend for this purpose.
An example:
The author writtes Title | Subtitle in k2 title field and the output should be:
Title
Subtitle

Any idea how can i make this?

Hi

This can be done by explode() function.

$titlesArray = explode("|", $this->item->title);
echo $titlesArray[0];                // This is the main title
echo $titlesArray[1];                // This is the subtitle
